For Professionals

If you work with children and young people, you know as well as we do that there’s a world of potential in every one of them. You just have to tap into it. And that’s what Become wants to help you to do.

We offer a range of opportunities for children and young people in care and young care leavers. From having their say with decision makers or being involved in our magazines, to getting advice on their rights and entitlements or helping us train professionals, there’s lots of ways children and young people can get involved. And in spring 2017 we launched the Become Coaching Programme, focusing on personal development and supporting care-experienced young people to unleash their potential. Find out more about how we can help below.

How we can help

Care Advice Line

Become’s free and confidential information and advice line for children in care and young care leavers, and those who support them.

We offer affordable bespoke training and consultancy to organisations that work with looked-after young people and those that want to gain a better understanding of the experience of being in care and how it could be improved.

Propel is a fully searchable website from Become providing care leavers with information on the support available to them from colleges and universities offering higher education (HE) courses across the UK.

Free to download and keep, Become's care Factsheets are essential resources for children in care, young care leavers, and professionals supporting them. Also available in Kurdish, Pashto, Tigrinya, Vietnamese and Arabic.
